    was a little intimidated opening the box to see how many pieces/parts had to be put together. Took about 2.5 hours to put it together with some help from my sons. For some of the trickier parts of the build, it was nice to have some helping hands. I wouldn’t suggest trying to put together by yourself. Attractive once it is all put together. Joy stick responsiveness is slow on some of the games, better on others. Brought back a lot of memories of time and $$ spent in Aladdins Castle. I like the deluxe version since it negated the need for a riser. Overall it is about 80% of the experience of a full-size arcade machine for considerably less money.

    Awesome game console. Feels like you are in an arcade with the size and feel. Only drawback to consider is the assembly. It took two of us working together (and fairly handy) about 3 1/2 hours to assemble. (Lots of pieces). It comes in a box about 3ft long by 6 inches wide.

    I bought this for my wife, who says, "It's a lot of fun to play and it doesn't take up a lot of room." My notes: great price and easy to assemble!

    This Product works great and it arrived quickly. The Assembly was easy and I have been enjoying it since I got it and put it together. Got it as a present and was excited to gift it. Definitely recommended as it works great and brings back the memories. It doesn’t take up too much space so it fit well in the room.

    The instructions were a little hard to follow at times, but once assembled, it works great! The instructions don't show which side is supposed to be up or down, etc. so that made building it a little tricky. The games work great, and aside from the control stick being slightly slower than you would expect it to be, we haven't had any issues with it.

    Got this for my wife for Mother's Day. She absolutely loves it!!!! It takes a little time to assemble, and I'm the guy folks call to put stuff together so figure a good hour to get it all set up. It is really cool and plays just like the original game. Wife and daughter are always dueling Galaga or Ms. Pacman. This is a homerun!!!!

    This is a great way to relive fond memories with my children. Although I am unable to bring them to an arcade filled with the site center aromas that really could capture the moment this cabinet gives the feeling of how the game should be played
